Statement Analysis for the Informed Interview

For years officers have been collecting Witness, Victim and Suspect Statements as a matter of routine and often fail to recognize the importance of what the writer is really conveying or purposely omitting. Through the analysis process, officers and investigators can gain insight that will prove invaluable in the interview/interrogation phase of the investigation. By analyzing the deliberate words people use, paying attention to the balance of the statement, the strength of their insinuations and a number of other critical factors, the analysis process will guide our investigators through a deliberate course of questioning. Statement Analysis for the Informed Interview will change the way our officers and investigators process criminal investigations and will unquestionably lead to a higher clearance and solve rate. 

​

Our Statement Analysis class is available in a one or two-day format. Our two-day course builds on the core one-day course by delving further into the analysis process, looking at both written statements and verbal statements. By thoroughly analyzing a statement in the initial phase of the investigation, investigators will become much more "informed" and prepared for the interview/interrogation process.  Statement Analysis for the Informed Interview two-day course is designed to deliver detailed knowledge on analyzing both verbal and written statements. This course will have a significant focus on the follow up interview and interrogation phase, based on the investigator's analysis.

 

Officers and investigators will have the opportunity to work on their current cases as we progress through the course of study and will have an tremendous impact on your investigative prowess.
